This speech must be recorded in front of an adult audience. To earn full credit in this area you must speak in front of at least 4 live/virtual audience members. Your camera person can count as one of your four audience members.
Please have a camera person scan the audience in the room and those watching through a computer screen before you begin. DO NOT turn the camera off between the time that you scan your audience and you begin the speech. Once you have begun, please be sure to keep the camera on you during the ENTIRE presentation. Treat the camera as if it were an audience member. In other words, look into the camera the same amount of time that you look at other audience members.
You will receive a 10-point penalty for each audience member not in attendance.
